Instead of going all the way down to the shucks I call it the four-way stop or above on Kapi`olani is a device for crosswalk devices the flasher. So, that might be to maybe for you is what do you mean by traffic devices, there is a lot from streetlights to crosswalks, pedestrian flashing lights and yes part of it too is traffic signal. It all depends on what kind of impact you are going to do to our County roads. :—"but I think the questions that I've asked you, you have answered it very well. Thank you. RAFFIPIY: Thank you. Any other questions from the Commission? CLARKSON: Yes, I have a question for the Director. RAFFIPIY: Go ahead Mr. Clarkson. CLARKSON: I'm curious about this Condition J. If Public Works is going to have the final say every configuration of built out is going to be subject to Public Works review and their requirements. I'd like to have Director Yee explain why this condition needs to be in here at all. I thought that, I don't see it as a big deal for my point of view but apparently this developer sees it as an unnecessary hurdle to have to go through Public Works and then come back to the Planning Commission to have Condition J modified. So, why can't we just delete Condition J? YEE: I'll give Christian a chance to respond first. KAY: Sure, thanks for the question Joe. So, ultimately the Condition is part of the ordinance as is right now. It is a standard condition and if you look at all of our rezone ordinances, we have a set of standard conditions that we add into our rezoning ordinances. This is one of those that is in there. I would like to point to the language though and the intent of the condition. Is streetlights and traffic control devices as may be required by the Traffic Division, Department of Public Works (DPW) shall be installed by the Applicant. There is no in my mind, there is no concern about having to come back to the Planning Commission or the Council to try and amend this. This is just an informational condition saying that these types of facilities may need to be installed if DPW Traffic Division requires them. So, it is really just advising the Applicant on next steps ultimately, So, basically as we stated in our recommendation even if we deleted this condition at the end of the day functionally everything happens the same way. So, we just wanted to default to our standard set of conditions. I'm not sure there's a huge amount of heartburn one way or the other I haven't heard anything in our conversations with the Applicants. We tried to express the same thing to them before so, unless there is something that really like this is something for funding reasons or whatever that's going to kill the project I don't see a huge reason to take it out. But that is just my opinion. YEE: Michael Yee, Planning Director. I want to add Joe that so there is kind of standard language in our conditions that basically say a project has to follow Federal, State and County laws right and we could always just write that and be one sentence and we will be done. We always write conditions that kind of reiterate certain areas it could be historic preservation it EXHIBIT A 15
